Thoughts on this mix

[EireRoo]

Hi just wondering should I or shouldn't I feed this as a mix to complement their mash or pellets.
One or two bantams, Orpington and Wyandottes would be main consumers.
Thanks

If the mash or pellets are a complete feed, then I would not bother adding that. They do not need it, and eating too much could be bad for them (not poisonous, just not enough protein and not the right balance of other nutrients.)

If the mash or pellets are deficient in something, you would have to figure out what nutrients are in each thing (mash or pellets, and that mix) to decide whether that mix would make the situation better or worse.

It would be fine to feed SMALL amounts of that mix as a treat, but probably not worth actually buying it for the purpose. If you have it laying around and no other use for it, then it could make sense to feed just a little bit each day until it is gone, rather than throwing it out.

It's essentially scratch, a treat. I wouldn't bother.
